Is it ok for me to say that I think it's rather odd? I've never seen anything like that on a forum before.

Is it ok for me to say that I think it sounds a tinsy tad gushy? I'm not saying you're all gushy, I'm just saying that it would feel that way to me if I keep pressing the "thanks" button all day and all night. Some things can go unsaid. I read one of Di's posts somewhere and I forget exactly what she said on it now, but I agreed with her and want everyone to know, that if you don't get a big thankyou post from Lara, then it doesn't mean I don't care or anything like that at all.

phew... thanks. lol

Sure it's ok to say you think it "gushy". Me? I'm a gushy kinda person. I kinda always have been. I think it's just my personality and those who know me might decribe it differently in their perceptions.

That's another reason I think it would be good if we could tailor it as I suggested. Those interested can be active and those who aren't don't have to view it other than seeing a nice "thank you" withink a thread...which is seen all the time.

Thank you, Lara.
